5Great little knife, October 4, 2019

It is a good little paring knife. I don't use it as much as the 6" blade I got, though.

Outstanding little paring knife! Far outperforms my Wusthof Classic Icon which has now become a hand-me-down to the rest of my family--(they are a little rough on knifes). I am always 100% satisfied with CKTG. Cheers, Bill

I love this little paring knife. It just fits the hand so nicely. Out of box sharpness is excellent. Great balance and blade profile. I find that 3.5 inches is the sweet spot for me on a paring knife and this falls just short of that. I have two paring knives in my block. This one and a Shun. I much prefer this over the Shun.

This a Great Paring knife, I had originally purchased a Tojiro paring Knife but I found that its blade (Even Though Its Sharp)is a little thick on the top which makes it extremely difficult to cut through vegetables like Potatoes and Carrots, but the MAC glides rite through them.

It came dull out of the box, which is surprising for MAC. F&F was poor, with noticeable gaps where the wood meets the metal tang. Handle and profile of the knife don't work well for my large hands, leaving too much distance between the knife and the food. The heel of the knife is too thick, which is also counterproductive for me.Good thing is it is very stain resistant. The Shun is superior to this in all ways but the stain-resistance. Total let down for me, since I love the MAC Pro 9.5 Chef's knife and the Superior Bread Knife so much. (both of which get 5 stars in my book)

Small, thin, and sharp, I really like this Mac parer. I like Mac Pros as a step up in fit, finish, and blade geometry from Tojiro, while still providing a great bargain price. Really easy to sharpen as well.

I just feel compelled to tell you that yours is the most ridiculously informative site of this nature I have ever come across.

Mark is great at answering questions for knife nuts of all levels. His service is second to none. Really appreciate the time he puts into every email as well as the free forum he hosts.

Great experience working with Chef Knives to Go. Quick delivery, and they are great about returning emails. I'm actually waiting on my second knife from them. I'm sure there will be more to come.

Very grateful such a dedicated and informative group of people provide excellent steel at competitive prices with superior customer service! A million thank yous!
